In a scathing attack on Rahul Gandhi, the BJP's prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi today accused him of undermining authority of the prime minister and asked people to decide if the nation will be run based on the Constitution or whims of the "prince".

Addressing a rally -- his first in the capital as the BJP's prime ministerial candidate -- he said the UPA was burdened by"governments within governments" which has been affecting the overall growth and development of the country.

"The pride of the prime minister has been brought down by his own party. Congress party Vice President has committed thesin of disrespecting the Prime Minister," he said.

Exhorting people to bring the 'dream team' of the BJP to power in 2014, he asked them to throw out UPA which is "deeply entrenched" in corruption."Today the issue is whether the country will run on the whims of the prince or on the basis of the Constitution,"  he said, alleging that Congress leaders were "disrespecting" the Indian Constitution, Parliament, democracy and the Cabinet.

Launching a frontal attack on the UPA, he said all political allies of UPA are running individual governments because ofwhich nation's growth and development have been severely affected.
